About this product

Introduction

Some differences

This DVD recorder is more similar to a computer than it is

to a standard DVD player. In addition to a

microprocessor, it contains an operating system, random

access memory (RAM), and a DVD-RAM/R/RW drive.

The operating system includes software that is

transferred to the RAM when the machine is turned on

and at other times during operation. This transfer can

take time. Thus, when you turn on the DVD recorder, it

may be a minute or so before it is ready to use. Likewise,

other functions may not be performed as quickly as they

would on other AV equipment. In addition, accessing

programs stored on the DVD-RAM/R/RW drive (or

deleting a program from a DVD-RAM or DVD-RW disc)

may take more time. Please take these factors into

consideration as you use the DVD recorder.

Playback Restrictions

This owner’s manual explains the basic instructions for

this recorder. Some DVD video discs are produced in a

manner that allows specific or limited operation during

playback. As such, the recorder may not respond to all

operating commands. This is not a defect in the recorder.

Please refer to the notes on compatible discs later in this

Introduction and to the discussion of DVD playback and

features later in this manual.

“

” may appear on the TV screen during operation.

“

” means that the operation is not permitted by the

recorder or the disc.

Recording Restrictions

Copy-protected contents of DVD-Video disc, VIDEO CDs

or audio CDs on the market cannot be copied on this

recorder.

Contents without copy protection should be copied or

edited only in accordance with applicable copyright laws,

which may restrict copying or editing. Contents that

permit single copying (copy once contents) can be

recorded onto DVD-RAM discs, with some dubbing and

editing restrictions. DVD-R/RW discs cannot record these

contents.

Compatiblity

In isolated cases, a disc bearing the DVD or CD logo

may not fully and properly play back all features. This

can be due, among other reasons, to problems and

errors that can occur during the creation or recording of

DVD and other software and the manufacture of software

discs (including blank discs). Moreover, because of

variations in the quality of discs, this recorder may not be

able to record on all discs that bear a DVD-RAM, DVD-R

or DVD-RW logo, but you should not encounter difficulty

if you use only high quality recordable DVD discs. If you

happen to encounter difficulties playing or recording a

DVD disc or playing a CD disc, please feel free to call our

Customer Service Hotline at 1-800-319-6684.

Notes

• Handle the disc according to the disc instruction manual.

• Depending on the data recording method or the disc status, playback or recording on this recorder may not be possible, even

if the disc is labeled as below. Toshiba cannot assure that all discs bearing the DVD or CD logos will operate as expected.

Please see the discussion of compatibility on page 5.

For recording / playback

Using different disc types for different purposes

DVD-RAM discs for your personal library

DVD-RAM discs comply with the global standard DVD-VR (Video Recording) format, and are optimized for recording of

TV programs. You can rewrite repeatedly without deterioration of an image quality, erase unnecessary parts, divide a

chapter, or specify playback area by frame. Its cartridge is suitable for a longer-term storage and family use, and its

large capacity of 9.4 GB allows more recording space.

DVD-R discs when creating your own original discs for distribution

DVD-R discs are designed to comply with the global standard DVD-Video format, and can be recorded only once.

DVD-R discs are convenient when you edit your original content (recorded personal events such as a wedding party)

with your recorder, transfer them to the recorder and make copies to send to your friends or relatives. The discs can be

played on other compatible DVD players. DVD-RW discs, which are rewriteable, can be used as well.

* DVD-R and DVD-RW may not be the best suited format for recording TV programs. Because of the way the discs are

formatted, it may not be possible to edit or divide the program as you may prefer, to record secondary languages, or

programs that are copy protected in a way that allows only one copy. (NOTE: “Copy once” protected programs

generally can be recorded to DVD-RAM discs.)

* This recorder records on a DVD-R/RW disc in DVD-Video format only. In DVD-VR format, recording is not possible.

We cannot guarantee that DVD-RAM/R/RW discs recorded on this recorder will be playable on all DVD recorders/

players. Similarly, there is no guarantee that all DVD-RAM/R/RW discs recorded on other recorders will be playable on

this player.

Introduction

On DVD-RAM discs

Use only DVD-RAM discs that comply with

DVD-RAM standard Version 2.0 or 2.1.

The recorder cannot record on a disc formatted in any

other standard. When using such a disc, initialize it by

using the disc-format function of this recorder.

The recorder may not record, dub, or edit some DVD-

RAM discs, because they are edited/recorded with

another manufacture’s equipment or PC, contain a

large number of titles, or have little remaining capacity.

Also, a DVD-RAM disc may not be edited or recorded

if its title contains still pictures.

DVD-RAM discs formatted in UDF2.0 on a PC are not

compatible with this recorder. Before using these

discs, initialize them on this recorder.

This recorder complies with current copyright

protection technology and can copy a disc only when

the disc permits copying once. When there is no

indication on the disc, copying will not be allowed.

Such an indication on a disc is required also for the

Library Management database.

DVD-RAM discs with cartridges are

recommended for recording.

Two types of DVD-RAM discs are

available: ones with cartridges and ones

without cartridges. You can use either of

them with this recorder, but the former

ones are recommended.

In order to record highly detailed data, make sure the

disc is clean. DVD-RAM discs with cartridges are

easier to handle in this regard.

Do not open the cartridge shutter. The disc may not

play, or may not be recorded or edited once it

becomes dirty.

There are two types of DVD-RAM cartridges;

removable (TYPE 2/4) and not removable (TYPE 1). It

is recommended you do not remove the disc even

when you can.

Refer to the instruction manual that comes with the

disc if it is absolutely necessary to remove the disc.

Some commercially available cartridge discs cannot

be recorded or edited once the inside discs are

removed.

To protect recorded contents

Slide the write-protect tab to

“PROTECT” with something small

enough. The disc can play, but

cannot be edited or erased. Refer to

the instructions that come with the

disc.

When using a disc without a

cartridge (commercially

available discs)

Discs without cartridges can easily

attract fingerprints and dust, which

is the reason they are not recommended. If you

cannot avoid using them, handle with proper care.

When you write in a title column on a disc, use a pen

with a soft tip. Do not use a pen with a hard tip, such

as a ballpoint pen.

Recommended discs

The following discs have been tested with this recorder:

9.4 GB double-sided cartridge: Panasonic LM-AD240U

4.7 GB single-sided cartridge: Panasonic LM-AB120U

The company does not hold any responsibility to compensate the contents which should have been recorded,

and any losses or damages (e.g. losses of business profit, or business intermission) that may arise from

malfunction of this recorder (not recording/editing as intended).

Problems arising in the following situations are included.

• When a DVD disc recorded on this recorder is used in a DVD recorder of another manufacturer, or used

(insertion, playback, recording or editing) in a personal computer DVD drive.

• When a DVD that has been used as above is used again in this recorder.

• When a DVD disc recorded in a DVD recorder of another manufacturer, or in a personal computer DVD drive

is used.

Some functions such as Library may not work with PC discs.

Structure of disc contents

Normally, DVD video discs are divided into titles, and the

titles are subdivided into chapters.

VIDEO CDs/audio CDs are divided into tracks.

Title: Divided contents of a DVD video disc.

Roughly corresponds to a story title in short

stories.

Chapter: Divided contents of a title. This corresponds

to a chapter in a story.

Track: Divided contents of a VIDEO CD or an audio

CD.

Each title, chapter, or track is assigned a number, which

is called “title number”, “chapter number”, or “track

number” respectively.

Some discs may not have these numbers.

When you record on a DVD-RAM/R/RW disc, one

recording will always equal one title.

Is your recorder ready?

• Refer to the supplied “INSTALLATION GUIDE”

manual and finish the necessary preparations.

• Turn on the connected equipment such as a TV or

audio system and select the input from the recorder.

Turning the power on

(This owner’s manual instructions are based on

the assumption that all proper connections have

been completed and the TV is turned on.)

Press ON/STANDBY on the front panel of the

recorder or on the remote control.

When the power turns on, the ON/STANDBY indicator

changes from red (standby mode) to green (operation).

After a few seconds, a start-up screen appears.

The following icon appears at the top right corner of

the screen.

When this icon disappears, the recorder is ready to

operate. If the disc drive contains a disc, it takes a

little longer to start up.

Viewing TV channels through this recorder

After turning the power on, the recorder will output TV

channel signals to the connected TV (also in the stop

mode).

You can select a desired channel by pressing the

CHANNEL buttons, or the number buttons.

(These buttons can select channels of a connected

cable box or satellite system, if “IR control” (
